  1. Hi could you help clarify how do you actually play two free plays per day?

    After redeeming the first free play through the email, I only see one free play. Do you automatically get the second one or do you have to do something else? Thanks for this webpage! It was very informative.

    • Hi, you need to fill out the form again to get the second free game play. I just updated the post since you asked a great question that I’m sure others have.
